Re: 939A 785GMH sata out?

I believe they're asking of the eSata port that's present at the rear I/O panel.

That one req's an eSata cable, not a regular Sata cable that's used internally.

#1 - Please, when seeking help, enter the make and model of ALL parts that your system is comprised of in your Signature, or at least the model #'s in your System Specs, then "Save' it.
____If you are overclocking, underclocking, or undervolting any parts, informing us of this and their values would prove beneficial in helping you.

#3 - Please use the PSU Calculator found HERE to determine if it might be the PSU causing issues. I do(Lifetime PRO ver.) and will mention so if it is marginal for your build.
____Consider your PSU to be the foundation from which all else is built upon. Anything built upon a weak foundation is poorly built.

Re: 939A 785GMH sata out?

This board doesn't have nor supply Power Over eSata/eSataP/Power eSata, so the external drive will req its own power supply. Be it a brick or internal to the enclosure, power will need supplied to the enclosure externally from a wall outlet.

Re: 939A 785GMH sata out?

I have just connected an e sata lead with usb power but upon connecting a 3.5 sata drive .nothing happens! the drive does not show in the h/d config tool ! should this give me an extra sata drive ie 6 sata devices or does the external drive replace one of the 5 internal sata ports.I can't see anything to enable external sata in the cmos screens.

Re: 939A 785GMH sata out?

Just what external HDD enclosure is it you have. Specifics please. Is it only usb powered or did it come with a wall wort also? Does it work with the wall wort powering it?

Re: 939A 785GMH sata out?

My sata device is usb powered. In the interim I tried a laptop h/d thinking the power requirements are less. No I have not intalled the all in one driver. would the drive still not show at boot on the cmps screen?
Thanks

That seems to be the problem, USB only uses the 5V power rail, and most if not all 3.5 HDDs need 12V power to operate. 99.99% of SSDs will work with 5V power only.
